Changing How You Hear the World

Written by Mark Bramhill

This is BirdNote.

We’re at the end of our spring fundraising week, and if you haven’t already pitched in, please consider doing so now at BirdNote.org.

[Song of the White-throated Sparrow]

We often hear from listeners that BirdNote has changed the way they see and interact with the world around them. It's had that impact for those of us who help make the show, too.

For example, since I produced our  episode with US Poet Laureate Ada Limón, I tear up a little every time I hear the song of a White-throated Sparrow, thinking about Ada’s poem Sparrow, What Did You Say?

[Song of the White-throated Sparrow]

And I’ve realized those sparrows are everywhere in my neighborhood! 

There’s so much life and song and joy out there, waiting for you to just listen for it. BirdNote is an invitation to nature’s concert.

Listener support makes this possible. Every dollar, from every listener, makes a difference. Just go to BirdNote.org and make a gift today.

If BirdNote has changed how you hear the world, please donate today at BirdNote.org. Thank you from all of us at BirdNote.
